Raipur is an urban agglomeration comprising the city of Raipur along with the new city of Naya Raipur and the industrial city of Bhilai-Durg. Although there is no integrated civic body for Greater Raipur till now but the growing population of both Raipur and Bhilai and the birth of Naya Raipur has propelled the concept of a single urban agglomeration. The Metro Rail Project is the 1st project based on the concept of an integrated approach for Greater Raipur.
